Need help for fancontrol on SBC Odroid HC4

Featured Replies

Hi !

I recently got an Odroid HC4.

I am following the guide (https://www.armbian.com/odroid-hc4/) to install Armbian 22.05 Bullseye on it.

But I have some problems and I dont know how to do..

 

So my problems is actually this part :

 

 

"Create a file in /etc/fancontrol with the following content:

 

INTERVAL=10 DEVPATH=hwmon0=devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0 hwmon2=devices/platform/pwm-fan

DEVNAME=hwmon0=cpu_thermal hwmon2=pwmfan

FCTEMPS=hwmon2/pwm1=hwmon0/temp1_input

FCFANS= hwmon2/pwm1=hwmon2/fan1_input

MINTEMP=hwmon2/pwm1=50

MAXTEMP=hwmon2/pwm1=60

MINSTART=hwmon2/pwm1=20

MINSTOP=hwmon2/pwm1=28

MINPWM=hwmon2/pwm1=0

MAXPWM=hwmon2/pwm1=255

 

followed by:

sudo systemctl restart fancontrol"

 

 

I made this file (see screenshot). 

1654102166-capture-d-ecran-2022-06-01-18

 

 

Then I run the command, and I got an error :

1654102166-capture-d-ecran-2022-06-01-18

 

And this I was is shown when I type the command "systemctl status fancontrol;service" :

1654102323-capture-d-ecran-2022-06-01-18

Update : 

 

Nevermind. Restarted the odroid, did it again, and it worked fine. 

 

 

I have used the example fancontrol file too, and fancontrol refuses to start with the error

 

Error: file hwmon2/fan1_input doesn't exist

 

I guess this is because I have the Odroid edge kernel (5.17.5) instead.

 

I can't find a fan1_input or anything like it in /sys/devices. pwmconfig says "/usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no fan-capable sensor modules installed"

 

Does anyone have a working config for a newer kernel?
